He was ever-present for Leigh, making fifteen appearances and scoring once before signing for Halifax in November 2004 for the remainder of the season.

In the January transfer window of 2007 he joined Chester to the end of the season, but did not get a good run in the side, and at the start of the 2007/08 season joined York, scoring once in his seven appearances. After an impressive few months, Alex joined Altrincham for the 2008/09 season, before rejoining Celtic on a months loan in January 2009, making the move permanent again in March 2009.
